GNA Youth Capacity Building Program 亞洲鬧世代青年培力營
We are thrilled to host Generation Now Asia’s 2023 Youth Capacity Building Program, inviting young Taiwanese and Southeast Asian people to come together to build essential skills in human rights advocacy and campaign building for social change.
Designed for Taiwanese and Southeast Asian youth, this program is about fostering a tight-knit community, establishing transnational relationships and starting new initiatives to help build a better future.
亞洲鬧世代很高興宣佈，我們將在今年冬天舉辦第一屆青年培力營。歡迎來自台灣和東南亞各地的青年一同參與，並學習人權倡議和組織運動等推動社會變革的核心技能。
專為亞洲和東南亞學生量身打造，GNA培力營目標是促成兩地青年形成有機社群，共同開創推動區域社會變革的行動。
About the program:
Bringing like-minded people together, our program will deepen your understanding of democracy and grassroots movements in the region, and offer you empowering tools to help you connect, reimagine and strategize how to call for change in society and fight for a better world.
What does it involve?
Our program is a three-day residential experience for young changemakers. Through a series of interactive and collaborative activities, you will have the opportunity to actively engage in dynamic discussions focused on regional issues and empower you to collectively lead your own campaign.
We will have a team of trainers and facilitators to guide you throughout the program, equipping you with knowledge and inspire critical thinking and mature reflection on human rights, freedom and justice.
GNA’s program will not only help you build organisational skills and give you the opportunity to work alongside people from diverse cultures and social backgrounds but also it will provide you with hands-on knowledge to make decisions concerning how to take care of yourself and your community.
